Another day, another useful Google feature. Today it’s the Google movie: operator. First, to make it most useful, search for something (anything, really) on Google Local, and check the Remember this Location. This will place a handy cookie on your machine so Google knows where you are. Now, the movie searches. If you search for movies or showtimes, the top link will be to a list of movies showing in your area, along with plot summaries, stars, ratings, etc. Or search for movie:showtimes to get there directly. Cinemas with online ticketing via Movietickets.com have handy links for purchasing tickets to specific shows.
To get showtimes for specific movies, try movie:Million Dollar Baby. You can also find movies by searching for movie: followed by an actor, director, producer or plot.
